Control of germline stem cell division frequency--a novel, developmentally regulated role for epidermal growth factor signaling.
Exploring adult stem cell dynamics in normal and disease states is crucial to both better understanding their in vivo role and better realizing their therapeutic potential. Here we address the division frequency of Germline Stem Cells (GSCs) in testes of Drosophila melanogaster. We show that GSC div...
